SharePoint provides a powerful platform to build intranets and it is one of the most common tools to do this across the world. Users go there to find the information they need to perform their day-to-day functions, from HR to Help Desk Wikis to Travel Request forms, and much more. The amount of time spent by employees on the intranet means that any improvements in design will go a long way to making users more efficient and happier. Employees should see the intranet as a useful tool, instead of a hindrance to find the information they need. This session looks at several real-life case studies and goes over what works and what can be improved. This includes branding, search, mega menus, and site design. SharePoint 2010 and 2013 will be covered.

You will learn:

  • Best practices for intranets
  • How to build mega menus
  • How to target different language
